Clinton fired his FBI director the day before HillarY’s boyfriend was murdered. Vince Foster
That settles it!!....The Hillary defense....Intent!!!...give him the Medal of Freedom and a few million dollars and move on....Why tear the country apart over such dedication..../s
The filthy rotten democrats are pushing this to the point where it’s almost time to settle this in the streets.
I hope it doesn’t have to come to that.

Before the election, Nancy Pelosi had hinted that Hillary would fire FBI Director James Comey.
"Maybe he's not in the right job," the House Dem leader had coyly suggested. "I think that we have to just get through this election and just see what the casualties are along the way."
The FBI Director was at risk of becoming a casualty over his handling of the Hillary investigation.
There was no outrage and no front page editorials at the New York Times and the Washington Post. No comparisons to Watergate or calls for an investigation. A top Dem suggesting that the FBI Director would have to leave because he was investigating another top Dem was just good government.
And there would have been none of the hypocritical media outcry if the election had gone another way and Comey were being told to pack his bags by President Hillary Clinton.
Hillary Clintons campaign manager had also hinted that Comey might have to step down because of his bias against Hillary. Now he claims that Trumps firing of Comey terrifies him.
After Comeys letter, Schumer had declared, I do not have confidence in him any longer. That is what top government officials say before demanding someones job. But now Schumer is outraged. "If we don't get a special prosecutor, every American will rightfully suspect that the decision to fire #Comey was part of a cover-up," he tweeted.
Were the Dem calls for Comey to resign also part of a cover-up?
Harry Reid had called on Comey to resign. Congressman Steve Cohen even wrote an op-ed titled, For the Sake of the FBI, Comey Should Resign. Now he touts Comey as a recipient for the Profiles in Courage award and accuses Trump of firing him because Comey threatened his presidency.
From Comey must go for investigating Hillary to Comey must get an award for investigating Trump. Did Cohen want Comey to resign then because he threatened Hillary Clintons presidency? ------------------------------------------------------------
So did Trump fire the guy investigating his Russian connections, or the guy, who cost Hillary the election? Choose your narrative quickly. Ben Smith (@BenSmithDC) May 9, 2017
I wish people would realize that the left has no shame. Using words and ideas to make them feel shame is a waste of time and energy.

The House Government Reform and Oversight Committee would later produce a report accusing the White House of politicizing the FBI. The FBI had been investigating its own contacts with the White House. The same month that Clinton fired Sessions, the White House released a report on the propriety of its own actions. It was against this corrupt background that the FBI Director was fired.
Director Sessions was fired on July 19, 1993. On the next day, Deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster was found dead in a Washington D.C. park. A note found in his briefcase included the phrase, "The FBI lied in their report to the AG."
I don't remember Bob Woodward, the Washington Post, Jeremy Peters or the New York Times giving a damn about this stuff at the time. The 'press' is unable to see their own corruption... or bias... or out right hated of traditional Americans. Maybe the little jerks should pull the clips to see how little they cared... because it was a democrat and they were on 'the take' for insider informaiton.
